As far as I can tell, the idea works. I am able to select a pdf file in Calibre and run it by using open with plugin. The file is saved in the same folder as the original pdf. |

Hi
How do I avoid page numbers, reperating chapter names (at the top or at the bottom) mingling with reflow? it makes it confusing to read when they mixup with the actual page reflow. thanks |

willus thanks for the reply.
I actually tried that but the issue was a usability thing for me, because I am not sure if I was getting the dimensions right. The other issue is that sometimes the placement of those can be minus plus with scanned pdfs, especially if the pdfs are scanned with a camera device so putting hard coded numbers will most likely cut off usable parts as well. The last issue related to it is that I personally like to have them as part of the page just in proper place, not part of the last line. I am not sure if there is a way to achieve this maybe K2Pdf needs some kind of pattern recognition and training mode In anycase I like this software as a desktop tool and as it being part of the Koreader. thanks |

Thanks for all the info. I will checkout scantailor. Do you have plans for multitheading? Especially for the preview window, sometimes it is a bit slow. thanks |

You can always put a limited source page range into the GUI's "Pages to Convert" box to preview how a specific source page (or set of pages) will convert. |

thanks for the heads up. I wish that you continue developing this tool. It is a tremendous help in Koreader. |

Now that on my kindle I put the 8 smaller pdf's, I can turn pages instantaneously and highlight text pretty much as fast as I can do that for proper ebooks, so leaving out separate pdf's for bigger documents is the way to go. |

While I do plan to add this feature eventually, I am a bit puzzled. I would think that most PDF documents would use a relatively standard font size, somewhere between 10 and 12 points, so that if you use a consistent odpi, you would get a consistent output font size. What is the font size range in your source PDFs? Can you (or kleinjar) post an example of two extremes (source PDFs)?

My books are in Arabic. I don't know if they will be of any benefit to you. I attached them to this post anyway. The first attachment is for a pdf with standard font size which is converted fine without the need to play with the odpi setting. The second attachment is for a smaller font which needs an odpi setting of 250 to be readable.

Okay, thanks. The font sizes are approximately 9-point and 18-point in your two examples.
